The history of our nation is saturated with the blood of our ancestors who willingly and even joyously sacrificed their lives for Hashem and the Torah. The Soviet Union ranks high on the list of lands where Yidden had to be moser nefesh for Torah and mitzvos. During the Communist era, life for Russian Jews was exceptionally harsh and difficult. They weren’t allowed to learn Torah together, nor were they permitted to gather for any sort of religious ceremony. Those who were caught breaking the law were deported to Siberia. In our story, we will meet our heroes during the hardest times of the Communist era. We will marvel at their Mesirus Nefesh and stand in awe of their inner strength, as they stay true to Torah and Yiddishkeit despite the odds. Read and enjoy!
